Win if I could find a freakin' N75 valve I would replace mine that day. If not, I'll be there anyways to offer my always valuable moral support

And hey, JR is it? Welcome to the website! I don't think I met you or your wife at VWOTG, I was wandering around most of the day. Some of us might try to GTG this week or next for burgers & beers...if you're free you should drop by! Check out the thread in this forum...and don't let the "Bondage" in the title bother you. I only tie up people I've met at least twice, so you and your wife are safe

Oooo! Oooo! It's my turn to be tied up! Hehe.

Hey Wen. Did you try Rich Topf at Liberty? Send him an email (rtopf@libertyautoplaza.com) and tell him you are a member of ClubB5 and you want an N75 valve. He can have it to you by Friday or Saturday... Jump online, and I can tell you more...

Wendy, Yeah, my wife and I admired your car...I don't remember who the nice guys was that talked to us about stuff...Maybe it was Winston...don't know, anyway, yeah, we'll keep checking on things and meet everyone.Winston, as far as mods go, I want to drop my car, cat-back exhaust my car, chip my car and I'm going to order some external mods for my car here in the next couple of days I want to put on...you know, the clear corner, sidemarker thing and since everyone's de-badging I'm going to add a badge...and a blow off valve, guages...

Were you the guy that stopped me in the parking lot? I arrived pretty late in the event (early afternoon) and you were just leaving possibly. You were driving an elegant green Passat with some 16" wheels. You said you wanted your car to look like mine (as in lowered with 17s, just not the same wheels as mine :wink: ).

Sounds like you have quite the plans. My only word of advice, is a Blow Off Valve (BOV) may not be a good choice. They are sweet and the novelty of the Blow Off sound is awesome, but they tend to be nightmares with our engines.

I don't think anyone makes a good BOV yest for the VW 1.8t. Most people that have them end up getting rid of them within 6 months, which is pretty costly in my mind.

GFB (Go Fast Bits) makes an adjustable BOV that you can change to test it out. This is what I would go with if you want to try it. That way if it doesn't work, you can change it to full recirculation...

Well, yeah, that was me driving an elegant green Passat. I just think my car is too high and the 16"s came with the car when I bought it. Uhh...yeah, I'll have my mech. do the exhaust later, but I've done springs...I can pick 'em up and if you want (dub) we can drop my ride. I'll bring some grub too

JR, the main thing I would check is to make sure that they are not too low. Mike Reed had the same problem and his car was way too low. I'll check with him to see if he can let us know which ones to avoid.

Other than that, bring tools if you have em and we'll make a day of it. the whole process for suspension is about 4-5 hours...

I'd like to take a look at my snub mount. I'm not sure it's all the way in and/or tight. Might also change my rear sway bar from soft to stiff. I'd like to VAG my car also. It's not accellerating smoothly. Maybe someone else could drive it and/or take a look at my diverter valve. I still don't know exaclty how to get it in and out.Basically I have nothing major to do but mess minor things, assuming no one else has things to work on.

Hey Jon, bring it all. Pat mentioned that he needs some snub mount work. I get snubbed all of the time so I can help with that. That will probably use my two jack stands and then we'll need at least a couple more for JR.

Who else needs work? Dave Kirstein? Where are ya? I know you need that Chasbar!

I think I should be able to make it... My car has a MIL.. has had it for 2 weeks and it's not cycling through. I don't think anything's wrong with it, I just need to see what code it's pulling.. though I should probably do that before the 7th... I also need to rotate my tires. Um.. that's about all I can think of. Unless you guys are just bored and want to rake my car, we can take my bilsteins down another couple notches in the front.

JR, Mike says to not get the Audi A4 Neuspeed race springs. It looks like he got the wrong ones sent to him and they caused his issues. If you want a lot of good opinions on what to get, post a question on www.clubb5.com and you can take advantage of lots of experience there.

Not that we don't have it too, but we are jsut a smaller local spin off of that club...

H&R and Neuspeed both look progressive, but I can't find anything saying that they are.

So I guess I don't know Pat. I trust Eibach's word when they say they are progressive, but look linear. H&R and Neuspeed sure look progressive, but I'm not sure if they perform as a progressive spring.
